License "take over" on other workstation.

[Vizioen]

Right now I forgot to turn off my 3dsmax at home and so my license is activated there, so I can't use Vray where I'm working right now. It would be nice, to have a system like Adobe that you can take over the license and deactivate it somewhere else. My teamviewer hasn't been installed yet so I guess I can't use Vray for the rest of the day.

FYI I tried using a 'borrowed' offline license through the license server but to no avail.

We're planning to implement more options for license management in the future. but for now there's no option to for forcefully take a license from an instance while running.

Great to hear. Thanks.

Sounds Great. Would be nice to be able to supply remote freelancers with a license and then at the end of the project forcefully "take back" the license from them and assign to a different freelancer.

@vizoen,
I was just curious, how do you manage your max license at home? I assume you use your office license?
Do you use the licensing borrowing utility from autodesk?
Ive been wanting to do some stuff from home but after some bad experiences with autodesk involving our licenses and a shitty helpdesk i didnt dare to try it out.
Thanks!
